Add Work IQ (M365 Copilot Search)

Work IQ is accessed through the dedicated Work IQ Copilot MCP connector (shared_a365copilotchatmcp; shown as "Work IQ Copilot MCP (Preview)" in the maker portal). It exposes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) endpoint whose CopilotChat tool performs AI-powered, knowledge-grounded search and conversation over Microsoft 365 content.

This is the purpose-built Work IQ connector and generates a WorkIQCopilotMCPService with a single mcp_m365copilot operation. Every command and code reference in this skill is specific to shared_a365copilotchatmcp (connection commands, and the generated WorkIQCopilotMCPService / WorkIQCopilotMCPModel files). Do not run this skill for a different connector. If you instead need the broader shared_a365mcpservers "Microsoft 365 MCP Servers" bundle (Mail/Teams/SharePoint MCP servers), add it via /add-connector, its generated service is MicrosoftMCPServersService, so you must adjust the Step 2 commands and the wrapper imports accordingly.

⚠️ Work IQ uses MCP. A JSON-RPC initialize handshake runs before the first tools/call. This connector's server (Microsoft.MCPPlatform.WebApi) is stateless-tolerant, do NOT send an Mcp-Session-Id on initialize (the server treats it as a session lookup and returns -32001 Session not found). Drive the connector through the McpSession wrapper below, which runs the handshake, sends no session id by default, sequences JSON-RPC ids, auto-retries on Session not found, and parses the nested response for you.
